NEW FUNDRAISER
Dan Weiss, an entrepreneur, triathlete, and ocean enthusiast who has previously supported our research, is launching a new fundraiser to bolster our lab’s research on coral reefs. Dan has qualified for the Duathlon World Championship, held in Townsville, Australia (the place where Simon did his PhD). He will represent Team USA at the event, and he is using his platform to raise funds for our research. To find out more and support his cause, follow this link.

Instructions for direct donations to the Fish & Functions Lab:
1) Go to this website: https://giving.utexas.edu/ways-to-give/
2) Click on “Give online” on the left hand side, which opens a website with a search option
3) Search for “Marine Science Institute” and click on “Add” on the right hand side as pictured below
4) Fill out the donation form on the right hand side with the relevant information (that is, the amount and whether it is a one time or sustaining contribution)
5) This leads to a second form that permits entry of the donors personal information (email, name, address, etc), the billing address, and a section asking: “Is this gift in honor or memory of someone?”
6) Select “Yes,” which opens options to select the honoree and recipient. The honoree can be left blank (unless otherwise desired). For the recipient, specify my first and last name (Simon Brandl) and email address (simon.brandl@austin.utexas.edu). This will ensure that my lab is the sole recipient of your donation and that I will be notified about your contribution.
